Join us to discuss The Clockwork Universe: Isaac Newton, the Royal Society, and the Birth of the Modern World, by Edward Dolnick. Learn how the Royal Society joined, and often led, the march toward scientific prowess during Restoration Era London and how Issac Newton, in particular, contributed to a new kind of mathematical understanding of the world. The discussion will be led by Lynn Harris.
